I receive real estate agent crap all the time in the mail. It's very annoying and I would NEVER HIRE ANYONE who resorted to "cold calling" to get business. Sorry, but any good agent DOES NOT NEED TO ADVERTISE. I know six amazing agents and they find their business through word of mouth and simply doing a good job.
There is one agent who keeps sending junk mail to my house (with my property info, photos, etc), even went as far as to use a return sticker from a pet adoption agency! Nice way to get my wife to open the letter. After 3-4 of them I decided to get even.
This is what I did:
1. I went online to the University of Phoenix and ADT and filled out all their "request more information" form and used this agent's information. Both of these companies will call 3-4 times a day regardless if you ask to be taken off the list.
2. I took his mailing address and registered a ton of junk mail.
Some of my friends say it's going overboard. Some say it's perfect. To me it's getting even. I don't need some real estate agent who can't hack it to be sending me nonstop junk mail with fake return addresses. Especially when he's sending me property tax information (yes, I know it's public information but still) or photos of my area and house.
That's pretty funny OP, but it's also mail fraud. Be careful bragging about it
